Science seems to require so much money and so many people nowadays. But are there still fields where ordinary people, amateurs, can discover things? In the past a lot of discoveries were made by amateurs, sometimes people like Mary Anning who were not allowed to be professionals.
But even now discoveries are made in astronomy, archaeology, biology and other fields by amateurs. Amateurs like Clara Lazen or Thomas Bopp.
Perhaps there are fields that exclude amateurs, like materials science. But who knows? Join us on Saturday at noon SLT to discover what you could potentially discover. Put on a lab coat and safety goggles and bring your microscopes.
IM Vulcan Viper, who teaches a meditation class every
Wednesday in the GeekSpeak auditorium, if you have ideas for new subjects.
